Natural Wonders & Cultural Treasures

Introduction

Rising up at the curve of the road, its truss bridge spanning the twin turret-like cupolas, the East Gate registration Complex stands proud as the last remaining early 1930s-style National Park gate. A shining example of the traditional Canadian Rustic Design style of architecture, its logs and stone walls were built by local craftsmen with local materials. Nowadays it still remains as eastern gateway to Riding Mountain National Park.

Constructed by skilled local craftsmen with logs hewn from the nearby trees, and local stone, the East Gate Registration Complex stands as the last remaining early 1930s-style entrance to any of Canada’s National Parks.
